Sermon on the Mount Series Episode 29 [Matthew Chapter 7 (KJV)]

Matthew 7:1-5

1. Jesus is not saying that we should never judge - Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.

2. It means don’t have a critical Spirit. It will destroy your life - Matthew 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

3. Judge yourself first - Matthew 7:3-5 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

4. Remember You don’t know it all - 1 Corinthians 8:1 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
